WASHINGTON, BORAH SEES NEED OF SPRING SESSION Farm Legislation Action Impos- sible Before March 4, Senator Thinks. A special session of Congress next Spring will be necessary to carry out the Republican pledge of farm legis- lation, in the opinion of Senator Borah, Republican, Idaho, who yesterday In expressing this view reafirmed a stand he took in the umpnlgbn. Appraising the problem as one re- quiring more time for solution than will be available at the short session begin- ning in December, the Senator said yes- terday. that no serious attempt could be made before March 4 to get farm legis- lation underway. He pointed out that the passage of the regular supply appropriation bills and action on naval legislation, Boulder Dam, Muscle Shoals and other meas- ures already before Congress, together with consideration of the Kellogg treaty to outlaw war, would require most of the time of the short regular ion. He added that he was quite confident no action would be taken at the session which might prevent final disposition of those measures. In the view of the Idaho Senator con- siderable time will be required by the two Houses to work out farm legisiation D. C. THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1928 W. B, MWoses & Sons 9 AM. to 6 PM.
